NEW GAME! We've just brought out a fantastic new aristocratic murder mystery game, Lord and Lady Westing's Will, at just 20 pounds / 30 USD for a game for 11–16 guests!

FREE GAME! Click here to download your copy of our completely free murder mystery party game.

It's a version of Way out West, our most popular game. It has all the same depth, complexity, fun and excitement of the paid-for game, but it's just for 10 guests – that's the only difference. Well, and it's FREE! See for yourself!

Sunday 9th June is the night of the Tony Awards, celebrating everything that's great about the theatre! You could stage your own backstage bloodbath this year, with Bludgeoned on Broadway, the game in which greasepaint meets grievous bodily harm.

IMPORTANT: please be aware that you are buying a game to download from our website, not a boxed game that we will send you in the mail.

A few notes of explanation about this process:

We don't have our own secure card-payment server. Instead the process is administered for us by WorldPay, a specialist firm. (If you want to know more about them, click on their logo above.) You'll see the url in your browser address bar change to starting with 'https://' instead of the usual 'http://', and you'll see a padlock appear at the bottom of your browser window. This is to indicate that the connection is now encrypted, and thus there is no danger of your card details going astray or being read by anyone that shouldn't. In fact, they don't get read by anyone at all, it's all automated. Neither we nor the WorldPay staff will see your card details, or get any opportunity to keep them once the transaction's completed.

"Many thanks for all your help in my questions. Thanks for your good wishes for Saturday's party. Look forward to trading with you again." Sue Garrod

Paying by cheque / IMO

You can also buy your game with a cheque or International Money Order, made out in UK pounds, if you prefer. See our cheque payment page for more details.

Guarantee

You can read our terms and conditions here. You'll see that we offer a no-quibble money-back guarantee. If you don't like this game, we'll refund your payment, no questions asked!

(We ought probably to add that this doesn't happen very often. Most people think our games are pretty good…)

Privacy

We're fed up ourselves of having our email addresses given to spammers, or being bombarded with an eternity of junk by a firm we bought something off once, and we're pretty sure most of you are too. So we have a very rigid and simple privacy policy, which goes like this:

  • we will never give any of your details to anyone else;
  • unless you explicitly ask us to, we will never contact you again after you've made your purchase, apart from a follow-up satisfaction survey;
  • if you do opt-in to our mailing list, all we will ever do is send you occasional information about our products;
  • we will hold the minimum detail about you possible.

Our data policy is fully in compliance with the UK Data Protection Acts 1984 and 1998 – see the UK Information Commissioner's site for more details on what this means.

No-quibble full refund

If you're unsatisfied with the game you buy, for whatever reason, just request a refund within 30 days and we'll happily refund your payment in full. (Not many people take us up on this offer!)
